Kelly walked into the kitchen and grabbed a can of pop. She leaned against the counter as she peeked to the living room. Everyone seemed extremely ecstatic to see Randy but she was shocked. She was the more quiet and shy type in college. She worked up the courage to tell Randy in the final year of college that she liked him and he told her he didn't feel the same way and simply walked off. Kelly felt stupid and embarrassed. She never wanted to see him ever again and that's what happened… until now. She looked down at her feet as she thought about the past. Randy was the first guy who rejected her. Many told her that she could get any guy she wants with the snap of her fingers. It was weird how he felt nothing for her. She felt the presence of someone in the kitchen with her, and slowly she looked up to find Alex. He smiled widely at her and opened his arms so she could go in for a hug. She laid her head on his chest and played with the buttons on his black polo shirt.
"Thanks for coming" he told her, still in an embrace.
"I wouldn't miss it for anything" she said.
Silence filled the air and Kelly slowly pulled away from him as she looked down to the ground. Alex noticed the uneasiness she felt and he understood what the problem was. "If it makes you feel any better, I didn't know Randy was returning today," Alex explained.
Kelly shook her head and looked beyond Alex's shoulder to see if anyone was coming. The only person who knew about Kelly liking Randy, was him. She told him accidentally when she was drunk at a party that Alex was designated driver for. Ever since then she tried avoiding the conversation but Alex kept urging her to tell him more. So finally she gave up and told him everything. They kept a trust between each other. Alex knows a secret about Kelly, and she knows a secret about Alex.
"I can't believe it. I don't know what to do," she said rubbing her temples.
"Well… do you still like him?" Alex asked raising an eyebrow.
"No! Of course not" Kelly said quickly. How could she? She hasn't seen him in 5 years. There was nothing to like about him anymore. Whatever she felt 5 years ago was all gone. "I just find it awkward to be in the same room as him."
"Maybe you find it awkward because you still like him" Alex pointed out. Kelly shot him a glare and he laughed. "Look Kelly, maybe you should talk to him? I knew Randy longer, and he's actually a cool guy. He's tried to get with plenty of girls. I still can't believe he said no to you" Alex said shaking his head.
Kelly frowned. "No offense, but he's still after so many girls." Alex's attention went to Randy who was in the living room chatting away with the Bella twins. They were on either side of Randy, touching him, and laughing at his jokes. Kelly watched on with Alex. She felt angry with herself. Why did she have to tell Randy she liked him and make herself look stupid? She finally looked away and after a couple of silent minutes she decided to start another conversation with Alex.
"I thought you were going to tell her" Kelly nodded towards Eve who was talking to Mike. Alex looked over and sighed deeply. He was completely in love with Eve but had no idea how to tell her. He shrugged and grabbed and can of pop from the counter.
"It's my birthday. I'm not ready to face rejection tonight."
"Alex-"
"Kelly, its not easy. She's going out with Mike. What am I suppose to tell her? 'Leave your loving boyfriend Mike, for me'?" he asked her. Kelly shook her head and looked down. Alex sighed and pushed himself off the counter and walked back into the living room. Kelly stood in the kitchen, alone. She was later joined when Layla furiously stomped into the kitchen with Phil behind her.
"Babe-"
"Phil, I just don't understand. I've asked you to marry me TWICE, and you've rejected me both times! We've been dating for 6 years. What's your problem?" Layla yelled. Kelly's eyes grew wide and before she could leave the kitchen and give them some privacy, Layla grabbed Kelly's hand. "Stay with me" she told Kelly before facing Phil again.
"You have to understand Layla. I'm just not ready-"
"What? Do you need 10 more years to decide? This is so pathetic! If you love me so much, you'd marry me in a heartbeat" she snapped. Phil didn't fight back. He bowed his head. Layla shook her head in disappointment. "Forget it Phil. Forget all of this" Layla gestured. Her voice was trembling and her eyes began to well up.
Phil looked at her in disbelief. "Seriously Lay? You want to throw away 6 years for nothing?" he asked her.
"For nothing? Phil I asked you to marry me, and you said no! I think," she swallowed the lump that formed in her throat and wiped away her tears. "I think I'm making the right decision," she finally said.
Phil looked away. He was beyond pissed. Layla was throwing away something so special just because he didn't believe in marriage? He turned away from her and before he walked out of the kitchen he threw the vase that was resting on the table, across the wall. Layla and Kelly jumped. He barged out and soon Alex and the rest ran into the kitchen.
"What the fuck!" Alex yelled.
Layla shook her head as her tears began to roll down her cheeks. She let go of Kelly's hand and ran out of the kitchen. Alex watched her go and faced Kelly. Kelly shook her head as well, "They broke up," she whispered. Everyone stared at her in silence.
